===== Pod 2 - LMD =====

Pod 2's Transhumanist Elements are as follows:

* The story arc of Aida becoming seemingly [[self-aware]] is picked up again in pod 2 where it is hinted that Aida has created an LMD version of agent May, killed a SHIELD agent, and begun a quest to regain the Darkhold book.

* The Darkhold is said to be able to show man "how to live forever" and Dr Radcliffe says; "man could once and for all break the bonds of his mortal restraints". It is later revealed that Dr. Radcliffe tried to use Aida to retrieve the Darkhold for himself and that Aida was programmed to behave in that manner, and not self-aware as first assumed.

* It is also the Dr. who made an LMD of agent May which he sends in to Shield as he keeps the real agent May hostage. The LMD of agent May seems to think she is in fact herself. The LMD of agent May is said to have had her memories implanted from the real May. This is done by what is shown as "memory upload" rather than consciousness transfer. Real agent May is also placed into a simulation (later referred to as the Framework). 

* Dr. Radcliffe also creates an LMD of himself, that is later discovered by Fitz and is subsequently destroyed.

* The Framework (Dr. Radcliffe's simulated reality) gets up and running, and the woman whom AIDA was designed to look like (Agnes) is uploaded into it in order to save her consciousness when her biological body dies. It is not made entirely clear whether or not this is a transfer of consciousness, or merely a copy that lives on inside the framework at this point. 

* Dr. Radcliffe is also killed by Aida and uploaded into the framework.
